Brief Introduction

Banks are the most regulated of all businesses in Nigeria.  This is because of the nature of banking itself and its centrality to the effective functioning of the economic system.

The importance and centrality of the banking system in the development of an economy are obvious and beyond dispute.  It plays some roles which include financial intermediation provision of an efficient payment system and facilitating the implementation of monetary policy

On intermediation, the banking system mobilizes savings from the surplus and channel them to invest in operating the payment mechanism the system serves as a medium for exchange, and in the execution of monetary policy, the system serves as agents through which the policies are disseminated

However, without banks’ arrangements, savings and investment will not only be inefficient but may lead to less than optimum resources allocation.
